It\u2019s been since 1992 that we had a Democratic senator in Kentucky,\u201d Beshear added about the theory.<\/p>\n<p>However, the governor acknowledged the GOP senator\u2019s absence isn\u2019t exactly a bad thing for his party.<\/p>\n<p>Beshear wrote a letter to McConnell on Monday demanding he provide proof of his \u201ccapacity to serve, or resign\u201d after the senator and his team ignored the governor\u2019s previous attempt to get answers.<\/p>\n<p>He argued on Tuesday that not having McConnell around to vote is not a bad thing for his party at the moment.<\/p>\n<p>Republicans hold a 53-seat majority in the Senate to Democrats\u2019 47 seats, but with McConnell in rehab, Republicans have an even tighter margin.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe hasn\u2019t been there to vote on the SAVE Act, which would tear voting rights away. He hasn\u2019t been there to vote to support this war on Iran that this president started and shouldn\u2019t be continuing,\u201d Beshear continued.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s not there to vote for a potential replacement of a Supreme Court justice to continue a court that would tear down the Voting Rights Act, so listen, when you look at some of this vacancy, not having Mitch McConnell show up isn\u2019t necessarily a bad thing because he certainly doesn\u2019t show up to help the American people.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=4440\">Swing State Voters Trash Trump\u2019s \u2018Absolutely Stupid\u2019 Move<\/a><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>McConnell has missed more than 38 votes since he was hospitalized on June 14, and his statement released on Monday indicated that he won\u2019t be back for at least another week, if not longer.<\/p>\n<p>It could prove challenging for Republicans to get legislation and confirmations across the finish line with such tight margins in the weeks to come. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>While Beshear is a rare Democratic leader elected in a deep red state, Kentucky voted for Trump in the 2024 election by more than 30 points, and forecasters expect it to go red in November <\/p>\n<p>The GOP-controlled state legislature moved to strip the governor of the power to appoint a replacement for the remainder of the term, though Beshear previously suggested he could challenge it in court.<\/p>\n<p>Whatever comes next, Beshear wants answers from the 84-year-old senator. He sent a second letter to McConnell and his team on Monday demanding the Kentucky Republican prove he can serve. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs the Governor of the state you serve, I am calling on you to directly and verbally address the people of Kentucky and provide proof of your capacity to serve, or resign,\u201d Beshear wrote. \u201cIf you are unwilling to voluntarily show that you still have the capacity to serve, I will insist Leader Thune fully investigate your condition, report to the American people, and begin the process if warranted.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He sent a second letter to Senate Majority Leader John Thune as well. The majority leader is one of the few people to have claimed to have spoken to McConnell in the past six weeks. <\/p>\n<p>In a statement on Monday, McConnell claimed he was working hard to return to the Senate, but a statement from the office of the attending physician also released by his office said the senator was not yet medically cleared to leave the rehab facility.<\/p>\n<p>The senator\u2019s office also released a new picture of McConnell, only the second since he was hospitalized, but critics have noted how similar it was to the previous image put out on July 12 and that it is not \u201cproof of life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=4439\">Newsom\u2019s Former Aide Lifts Lid on Explosive Affair<\/a><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear has revealed the reason why many believe Mitch McConnell has stayed hidden from view since his fall at his Washington home on June 14.
